Impressionism. We will be talking a field trip to
the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC in the spring and
will have a tour of Impressionism.

in the arts, connecting the individual work to other
works and to other areas of human endeavor and thought.

and cultural forces that shape artistic communication
and how the arts in turn shape the diverse cultures of
past and present society
